I am trying to locate a barn cat documentary. I saw it years ago either on
PBS, TLC, Discovery, National Geographic or the like. Is anybody familiar
with this video? Can you help me with a title or producer? TIA.

There was a PBS documentary (I believe it was on Nature) called "Cats"
which did have a sequence set in England regarding barn cats. IIRC, it
noted rather brutally how toms would kill unrelated kittens if they
could get away with it (if the queens weren't nearby, for example). You
could probably have your local library order it for you.

National Geographic magazine had an extraordinary article on house cats
in the April, 1962 (IIRC) edition.
